XTC - Blue in Paradise текст песни

(co-written by andy partridge and tracey bryn of voice of the beehive)

Silver lining changed to grey skies

When a red-eyed angel waved goodbye

In my lifetime, I may find him once again to my surprise

Ill wait here, patiently and you may just return to find me

Chorus:

Blue in paradise, the paint runs down

Just like my teardrops

Blue in paradise, Ill paint the town

Until the hurt stops

Make a wish on every rainbow for the colours to reappear

Green with envy, wishing you home, red faced mad I wait alone

Ill stay here, one day dear you may just return to find me

Chorus

And if you return, nothing will be different

And if you return, nothing really will have changed

The red of my heart is black and blue now

Broken up and dragged around

Ill lay my dreams all down to sleep here

Ill close my eyes to hear no sound

Im cryin, Im dyin

But I will hold my breath

til you find me
